The Governor-General in Council cannot; there fore, too distindly, avow .his entire concurrence in the sentiments of the Officer commanding the army, on the present-occasion, and his Lordship in Coun cil will ever acknowledge. the deep obligations of the. British empire at !ale, as well as of this, portion of it, to the firmness and energy with which Major ,General Gowdie has, with persocal rrludance, no 'd. , tibt, but with a 'manly devotion to his public duty, opposed the establishment -of false and unmilitary prinCiples, by withholding his confirmation of a sentence from which- they would hereof:ter claim support . ; and has.counteiacted their pernicious ten dency by a solemn assertion of those 'civil and military tenets which the , Legislature • has, On this branch of our public dutie ,, ,' exclusively acknow ledged, as conformable with the juster notion, of the militarycharatter, or compatibe with military trust. Those cardinal maxims are, that in every calamit. us case of ioutiny and revolt, whether partial or general, or «on whatever pretext" that mo estrous offence may seek to justify itself, the fir,t obligation of every officer and soldier is to oppose its progress by e'very effort of persuasion. His second ii, to separate him self from the guilty ; and the IPst and most sacred is, to join the standard of his :ove - eign, his ern plop:l-s, 4nd his duty, and to strain every, nerve of zeal, activity, and courage, in subduing the criminal party. . . . It is in conforthity with these just and important ,principles, and with, a liVely. sense of their poWerful and decisive influence on the discipline of armies and safety of the state, that .the Governor-General in Council has deemed ,expedient and necessary to adopt the firm 'and judicious advice of the Officer commanding the army, and to postpone the indul gence-of personal dispoSition and every other inferior motive to the more sacred care of providing in an extraordinary conjundure for the interests arid secu rity of the public.

(equal to 450,000 Spanish dollars), in notes of one thousand rix dollars each all -- duly signed and regis-. tered by the proper authorities, and whereof GOvern . - ment has caused public notice to be given, in order that no one shall plead ignorance of the newly creat ed paper money, or any way refuse to take them in It cral payment, whenever they shall be tendered for that purpose. On the sth of March, 1810, the Governor-:Gene- ral in Supreme Council, assembled at Batavia,' &c. being desirous to 'afford every encouragement tolits subjects, for the extension of. commerce, but more particularly towards the opening of a new branch of trade, which Government 'prol,oses to carry on ; be tween Macasa and Archin, as well as from either of those two places to and froM Batavia, Samarang, St,urabaya. • The principal- object of the aforesaid trade shall embrace and chiefly consist of importing linen and opium into our colonies ; and in return, our subjeos shall have free permission to export spices and other conimodities, the produce of the Dutch Islands ! • Govetnthent being well convinced of the great advantages likely to arise, not only to her colonis, but to her brave adventurers in the trade just proposed to them ; she therefore; hereby, exhorts and grants full and free permiSsion to all her faithful subjects to enter upon the trade . in queStion; which trade, however,'. shall be under the following regulations, as the law directs.

DiSpatches were this day received from Lord WEL-, iallGTozsr, dated the 18th ult. The head-quarters were still "at Celorico. Nothing important had oc curred,.and our Army remained in good health. Dispatches were received in town this day from Mr. MACKENZIE, at Morlaix. The contents had not transpired when this Paper was put to press We understand, however, that the negociation re lative to the Exchange of, Prisoners had not been broken off, as was expelled; Mr: MACKENZIE •Slil remaining there' to carry ,it on. A Gottetzturgh Mail arrived this morning. The King of Denmark is said to be highly of fended at not being chosen Crown Prince of Swe den. 'Froml6sitock it is stated, that the Commander of the FrenCh troops which entered that place on the 17 tl►.ult. made a dema•d of 300,000 rix-dollars, which he afterwards most kindly reduced to 80,000 ; and this latter demand not being complied with, die -whole of the magazines containing colonial produce were put under sequestration. . German Papers arrived last night a day later than those which reached town in the morning. Accouths -from Italy of the 7th ult. attempt to lessen the dis" grace of the defeat of MUUAT'S Naval Force, but without success, it being clear from the confession of the enemy, in ,the article from Naples in the Hamburg 4 Correspondenten, which we inserted yes terday,- that the defeat was a very serious one It appears, indeed, from what is detailed in that statement, that some of the essential means for making an attack upon Sicily. were, by the result of th'at alLir, so far either 'destroyed or diMinished, as to render it probable that the enterprise must be abandoned altogether; as MurtiiT's army could not _remain long on. th e coast - of Calabria, after the 25 th • • .of July,; the day on which this disaster was sus =tained, without being exposed to a certain and heavy,luss of men from the effeas of the climate, and from sickness. rapers from. Buenos Ayres reached town yester day, to the 14th of June, from Which we have in serted smite interesting extracts, as well...ps from other South American Journals. It must certainly be very mortifying to the Op position Writers, to find that all their predictions of the unavoidable necessity of a retreat, on the part of Lord WELL' NGTON,II3Ve been completely falsified by subsequent events. But to increase their Mortifica tion, the Enemy, instead of their countrymen, seem to have retreated; though the alleged reason is, that MASSENA deemed it necessary to retire in order to concentrate his forces. Whatever may be the in tention of MASSENA, it is obvious that he does not deem it wise to attack that British Army , which, according to the gloomy prognostications of Writers at home, who pretend to be patriots, would soon be . compelled to 'retreat,. or become prisonert 'of war.. - Nay, so confident were: these Writers, that they obligingly pointed out the'best mode in vf1112.11 our . Army should retire for the purpose Of' re-em barking, and warned Ministers, to . have vessels in readiness to bring them in. safety back, lest they , should be lamentable victims of French superiority, not only in numbers but in skill. Yet the British . General remains in. his - position, undismayed ; his. troops pant to engage the Enemy that was. to chive them into the sea, or anoiliilate them. But to ag gravate 'the chagrin of the •Writers alluded to, we find that the Spaniards are exerting themselves with the greatest zeal, arid have by experience become 1. formidable, not only in their desultory mode of: warfare, but in . serious conflicts with., considerable bodies of the. Enemy. The OpPoSitiOn Writers must therefore endeavour to console themselves with the idea that chance has great influence in human affairs, and that some casualty may befall 'our Ar rnies that may in some degree support their predic tions, and revive their hopes that the cause 0f Spain may be ultimately ruined. The recent events in Sweden are of so extraordi nary a nature, even in these times, that we deem it. necessary to s.ty a few wor6 more on t he subje6l. The . present King, or.' rather Userper of that country,, has been but a short ,time in possession of the Crown wh!ch.his ambition obtained at the expense of every pr;nciple, of justice and loyalty, and every tie of tural affeEtion. Indeed every impulse of nature Mot, have vanished from his heart, otherwise :he would pot so 'entirely have disregarded his own family, and passed over the son of the late King, to make way for a low-barn ruffian, elevated only - by his crimes. But what adds mockery to the turpitude which marks the whole of the proceedings.is, the declare tton of the Swedish King . , that " the voice of the people (that pepple.who have never been consulted; and never will be consulted on the occasion). loudly and unanimously. declared in favour of the Prince 'of Po ATE CORVO," as he is'calledll. This self-degraded Monarcn speaks of " the prObity of the-claara6ler of BERNADOTTE," though his very offer to assist Swe den with 3,000,000 of Francs (about three hundred and fliirty' thousand pounds sterling) is a proof that nothing like probity belongs to his charaEter, for how could BERNADOTTE have become possessed of the power to offer stick a loan but by the most villainous rapacity and spoliation ? How many thousands of the viEtims of .the' french armies, in various coun tries, mpst hive been, reduced to rein and misery, to supply BERNADOTTE and the other. chief minions of BUONAPARTE with the enortnOus fortunes which they have acquired ? It remains to be seen wile.: ther the Swedish people will. quietly .sUbtuit to so odious a usurpation, or whether they have lost all sense of national dignity, and are content to be sold like cattle at a market. The subject is so disgusting and so depressing to all who feel for the interests, the independence, and the honour of the .great community of nations, that we drop it for the pre sent, not, however, wholly without a hope that the Swedish People have too much pride and patriotism to submit, without a struggle for a better destiny.

The latter laid before his MAJESTY the report' of several Coiirts-Martial. Yesterday Sir . Tnos, TRIGGE transacted business relative to the Ordnance, with his MAJESTY, in the absence of Lord MULGRAVE, ,the Master s -General of the Ordnance. • Some differences, of opinion prevailed respeaing the propriety' of celebrating the late Jubilee, .be cause, as it was alleged, his MAJESTY entered, and .did not complete the fiftieth year of his reign, on that occasion. The ensuing anniversary, however, puts an end to all these differences, and 'it is gene rally expelled that it will be celebrated throughout the United Empire, with, if possible, increased zeal and festivity, GOTFENBVRGII MdIL.
